A 1000 Reasons (Off to Hanoi)'s photostream  

Grace is not everything
Harmony doesn’t count,
For much
Not when you’re having fun!

Spontaneity is the rule
Unbridled joy needs no collar
Bolt any way you want, as long
As you are, having fun.

Enjoy the innocence while it lasts
When all is fresh
Worry not about the steps
Just have fun!

I saw a spider on a web
Hanging high above my head
Looking at me with a hundred eyes
Does it think I’m a fly?

Readied itself for the perfect catch
Doesn’t it realize?

Trust me,
Everyone ought to wear sunglasses
Before facing the sun.
Sunscreen may cover more
But if you protect your sight
It will be quite alright.

When the world is too bright
It let in just the correct light.
But remember to take it off
When it is approaching night.
For when all around you is getting dark
It is best to trust your own sight.

(Inspired by Mary Schmich - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

But you shone, the brightest of all.

In the vast distance between us
In the deep silence, all I hear –
Are the songs you sang…

Through her words, I imagined the scholar walking under the weeping willow meeting Lady White Snake and falling in love with her. How the strict monk seeking to uphold the Law of Heaven forbade the union of man and spirit and drove them apart. And when he could not severe their love for each other, imprisoned her under the Pagoda for eternity. A tragic but beautiful love story. So if you go to the West Lake of Hangzhou, hired one of the boatman for this is the best way to view the lake and hopefully, you will get a boatman as pretty and as cheerful as the boatman who showed me West Lake.
